MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Impact The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation conditions are undetermined. No CVSS vector, CWE, or vulnerability description is available to identify required access level, authentication state, specific configuration, or affected features. It is unknown whether exploitation requires authentication, specific Gitea features to be enabled, or any particular deployment configuration. Security teams cannot assess realistic exploitation prerequisites from this CVE record alone and should monitor upstream Gitea and Alpine Linux advisories for technical disclosure. |
| Impact | Risk cannot be meaningfully quantified for this CVE. No CVSS score, vector, or CWE is provided, and the description contains no technical detail about the nature of the flaw - whether it is a remote code execution, authentication bypass, information disclosure, or something else entirely is unknown. Without these signals, neither the attack surface nor the likely impact can be assessed. The absence of KEV listing and POC data means active exploitation is not confirmed, but that absence is not reassuring given the near-total lack of disclosure. Any organization running Gitea on Alpine Linux - even a mid-sized municipal IT team in walbrzych managing internal repositories - should treat the available patch as sufficient reason to upgrade, since the risk profile of self-hosted Git forges (credential exposure, repository tampering, CI/CD pipeline access) is inherently high regardless of individual CVE severity. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | The exploit scenario cannot be described with any specificity - no attack vector, privileges required, or impact class are disclosed. In a generic worst-case framing, an attacker with network access to a Gitea instance running a vulnerable Alpine Linux package could trigger the underlying flaw, but the conditions, method, and outcome remain entirely unknown from available data. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 06, 2026
Gitea, the self-hosted Git service, received a security fix in Alpine Linux package version 1.27.3-r0. The underlying vulnerability details - including attack vector, impact class, and root cause - are not disclosed in available intelligence sources. This entry is sourced exclusively from the Alpine Linux vendor advisory, which confirms a fix exists but provides no technical description of the flaw being addressed.
RemediationAI
Upgrade the Alpine Linux gitea package to version 1.27.3-r0 or later using the standard Alpine package manager: 'apk upgrade gitea'. This is the only confirmed remediation action available from current intelligence. No specific workaround is documented because the vulnerability class is unknown - generic network-level controls (restricting Gitea to internal networks, enforcing authentication at the reverse proxy) are reasonable defensive measures for any Gitea deployment but cannot substitute for patching when the flaw type is undisclosed. Operators not on Alpine Linux should monitor the upstream Gitea release notes and GHSA advisories for the corresponding fix announcement.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Gitea is an open-source, self-hosted Git forge written in Go, commonly deployed by organizations seeking a lightweight alternative to GitLab or GitHub Enterprise. The fix is documented at the Alpine Linux package layer (gitea 1.27.3-r0), meaning the upstream Gitea project at approximately version 1.27.3 includes the security correction. No CWE identifier, CVSS vector, or vulnerability class has been disclosed with this CVE, making it impossible to characterize the root cause from available data.
